Earth takes in thermal energy from the Sun in a process called THERMAL RADIATION.

Sunlight strikes Earth's surface at different angles. This angle is called the angle of INCIDENCE.

Explanation:

It is thermal radiation because thermal radiation refer to process where electromagnetic waves are emitted from a body or matter whose temperature is higher than zero. The Earth take in thermal energy from the sun as a result of thermal radiation.

Angle of incidence is the angle between a ray of light and the surface of it's perpendicular direction. The sunlight strike the Earth surface at an angle called angle of incidence.

answer: ice crystals in air

the water from the water body or another source of water gets evaporated as water vapor as an effect of heat on water. these water vapor rises in the upper layers of the earth atmosphere under high atmospheric pressure. the atmospheric pressure of these water molecules starts to decrease due to the effect of cold air. the invisible water vapor condenses into visible water droplets and ice crystals.these ice crystals and water droplets being less denser than the surrounding air floats on air as clouds.
